The NVIDIA Blackwell architecture combines breakthrough AI, ray tracing, and neural rendering technology, with massive performance and memory improvements to drive cutting-edge professional creative, design, and engineering workflows and power the next decade of innovation.
NVIDIA Blackwell Streaming Multiprocessor: The new SM features increased processing throughput and new neural shaders that integrate neural networks inside of programmable shaders to drive the next decade of AI-augmented graphics innovations. Fifth-Generation Tensor Cores: Deliver up to 3x the performance of the previous generation and support for FP4 precision for faster AI model processing times with reduced memory usage, enabling local fine-tuning of LLMs and generative AI.
Fourth-Generation Ray Tracing Cores: Double the ray-triangle intersection rate
of the previous generation to create photoreal, physically accurate scenes and immersive 3D designs with NVIDIA RTX™ Mega Geometry, which enables up to 100x more ray-traced triangles.
Next-Gen Video Engines: Enhance video conferencing, video production, and streaming workflows with real-time AI processing. Ninth-generation NVENC and sixth-generation NVDEC engines provide support for 4:2:2 encoding and decoding to explore a new realm of high-resolution video workflows.
